Dell Vostro 1540 Power Adapter
The Dell Vostro 1540 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, please check on both the volts and amps outputs. When purchasing a replacement adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. Due to the fact that one Dell adapter can be used on other units, be sure you choose the right one. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if you absolutely need to.
Major warnings your AC adapter has little time left
- Most Dell adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Battery does not charge up completely
- The unit will not run while just using AC power
